Some of our ticket stock have features that could be helpful in detecting or preventing ticket forgery.

Please keep in mind however, that no printed matter is guaranteed to be 100% counterfeit-proof.

THE ULTRAVIOLET SENSITIVE TICKET

Custom copy may be printed on the front or back of any ticket style. This allows for easy verification of authenticity with a standard ultraviolet light.
Ultraviolet ink and stamp pads are available for stamping your own tickets with your custom design.
See the ULTRA-PEN, on the next page, for an economical way of marking tickets or items personally and our Ultraviolet Light for reading.

THE STANDARD HOLOGRAM STAMP

The Hologram stamp is considered the BEST deterrent to counterfeiting.
Permanently stamped on most any style ticket, the design, size or shape may change, without notice, for your own protection.
A custom Hologram may also be created for you.

BARCODED TICKETS

Quick Tick now offers printed Linear and 2-D Barcodes for all your security needs. With Linear Barcodes, each character is represented by a pattern of wide and narrow bars. A barcode reader uses a photosensor to convert the barcode into an electrical signal as it moves across a barcode. The scanner then measures the relative widths of the bars and spaces, translates the different patterns back into regular characters, and sends them on to a computer or portable terminal.

2-Dimensional symbols are generally square or rectangular patterns that encode data in two dimensions. They can be read by special 2-D scanners or by many CCD and laser scanners with the aid of special decoding software.

THE UV PEN

The UV PEN offers a simple and inexpensive solution to security problems. You can permanently and invisibly mark or write on tickets and documents or property to prevent counterfeiting or fraud. The clear ultraviolet ink can be detected with a standard ultraviolet lamp.
